The work's going well so far.
Overhauled the rear brake caliper in the weekend.
The hardest part was getting all the varnish out of the seal grooves.
I put new seals and pistons in but didn't split the caliper.
Also put in a K&N air filter today.
Next job, new downpipes. I tried a few of the nuts and they came loose easy enough so I don't expect any problems with broken studs.
Is it worth changing the studs for stainless while I've got the downpipes off?
Do I need a stud remover or is the 2 nut trick fine for this?
